Automation Technology C4 -Smart high speed 3D cameras

These robust laser scanning sensors are an efficient, attractively priced
solution for industrial inspection applications that require three-dimensional
imaging. Thanks to the on-board pre-processing of the raw image data, the
Automation Technology C4 3D cameras offer previously unattainable frame rates
for inspection, measurement and sorting in the third dimension.

Depending on the model, the C4 high-speed cameras deliver 58 million 3D points
per second with a resolution of 2352 x 1728 pixels resp. more than 104 million
3D points per second with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels.

One special feature of these C4 cameras is the smart camera architecture,
which offers an image memory capacity of up to 1Gb for customized image
processing.

Data is exchanged via a Gigabit Ethernet interface which complies with the
GigE Vision standard, thus making integration considerably easier for users.
With the plug and play GenCam protocol, configuration is quick and simple.

This GigE variant camera is fully optimised for use with the Common Vision Blox GenCam drivers, allowing the sensor to be fully controlled from any CVB
based application. It achieves this without the use of camera-specific
libraries which would compromise its hardware independence. Like all GigE
Vision cameras supplied by STEMMER IMAGING, each AT C4 camera also includes a
free CVB CameraSuite MultiOS licence.

Storage of a user-defined start-up camera configuration in a configuration EEPROM

Integrated control of extern illumination (Laser)

Supported by Common Vision Blox

Easy to integrate through compliance with the GenICam standard

The company Lutz needed to inspect the planarity of parts for the automotive industry. STEMMER IMAGING suggested an easy yet powerful 3D machine vision set-up with a laser triangulation system and the software Aqsense 3D Express.
